Advantages: good action film, special effects Disadvantages: purists maybe upset
...the storm; and so the Fantastic Four (Mr. Fantastic, the Invisible Woman, the Human Torch and the Thing) are born, as well as new arch villain Dr Doom.
Initially I had been told lots of bad things about the Fantastic 4 film. That it was not worth seeing. That it was a lemon of a film, and that it was not a true depiction of the Fantastic Four characters from the comics. The last of these reasons (to me) would not be very high on my reasons for not ... ...of thing.
*** 'The Fantastic Tour': ***
A handheld mini tour from Jessica Alba with interviews with the rest of the cast. Lots of jerky camera action which is a tad annoying however it is a different take on most of the "making of's" or "behind the scenes" that I've seen before.

Advantages: Great effects Disadvantages: No plot at all really, HUGE science goofs.

At least in Spiderman and X-Men there is some kind of character outlining. Their powers are acquired ... ...They get into space too easily, the mission isn't explained. Why Victor Doom is aboard, no reason given. This is an excuse to put Jessica Alba into a low cut top to show us her cleavage. The scenes in the mountains where the powers are first shown like Human Torch's flame on. Totally pointless and there for thrill value only. Why each member gets the particular power they do, they were all hit by the same rays but all get different powers? The "cloud" ...

Advantages: Family Entertainment Disadvantages: Not enough action
The fantastic four is a great hit* for all the family, but it doesn't have enough adventure. The story is about 5 people who were planning a trip into space as the original genes that created man were in space on a persific date, so the fantastic four go to space with a multa billionaire who invested the trip. Whilst they are getting prepared. The gene storm came early which didn't give them enough time to be fully prepared which caused all five ... ...of the fantastic four had the power to have invisibility and a power to contain, the other to stretch like rubber, the next to be made like rock, and the final one to have the power of fire and to fly, but not forgetting the multi billionaire who was also on the ship he became strong and made of the strongest metal and had the power to control electricity.
The basics of the story is:
The multi billionaire becomes evil and wants to have the most ...
